I have a lot to say but for now all I'll say is that Liam was the world's punching bag for 14 years, and for most of that time, he handled it, at least outwardly, with more grace and composure than most anyone could. The fact that people couldn't see that he was being eaten alive—figuratively, literally, by something (or many things)—has made me angry for years. He wasn't well. It was so obvious. I wish people could have had compassion for him.

#preach #these people have always treated him like shit

Liam Payne is SO important. He loves his job, he loves his boys, he loves his fans and he never lets us go without knowing any of this. He has a huge heart and somehow an even bigger voice. He’s helped write most of the music and is always eager for us to hear it. He didn’t complain when the No Control project swept his involvement in the song under the table. Instead, he continuously praises Louis and has been nothing but proud of him. This boy has so much talent and yet goes unappreciated and I can’t understand why. Every show he wants to make sure that we’re having fun. He interacts with his fans, goes out of his way to take pictures and read signs. He wants to meet every single fan, knows that he can’t and gets upset if he knows he’s let any of us down.

I’ll never forget the time he asked if it was alright if he went outside with Harry to meet fans because he didn’t think anyone would want to meet him. I hope he knows that not everyone makes a joke out of his place in the band, that many of us can see how special is. Liam is a good, genuine person who gives his all every single night and ultimately the glue that holds this band together. He doesn’t have to be your #1, but he is NOT your punching bag or some sort of joke. Please show him the love and respect that he deserves.

heart is in complete shambles after looking at geoff payne looking at the memorial and thanking fans and paul higgins being there like no parent should ever have to bury their child this is truly heartbreaking. and paul being there is just so. god they really were all so close and formed genuine relationships with everyone during 1d and that clip in this is us where paul says he's like the boys' dad on tour and now he's about to go bring liam back to the uk. i just. this is truly the most heartbreaking thing ever

I posted this elsewhere and feel the need to share it here because this feels like 1D’s home.

I can’t help but be extremely angry and resentful toward all the people 10 years ago who gleefully bullied him online & insisted they were right for it. To be Liam was shameful, to like Liam was shameful. If he sang, he was wrong. If he didn’t sing he was wrong. The list went on.

If anyone said the treatment was bad, we were shut down and told he deserved it. Truly for no reason other than people liked having a punching bag. We see in his loved ones’ statements that this profoundly changed his self perception over the years.

He ended up self sabotaging and hurting other people. I can’t help but wonder if things would’ve been different if he was shown a little more kindness during the 1d days.

I hope anyone who ever made a nasty tweet or post or concert sign back in the day is deeply ashamed and regretful. I hope the likes and reblogs were worth it.

Louis and Liam’s reactions on #StandUpToCancer, Gogglebox.

seeing a lot of "idc if an abuser does" type of takes and I'm sorry but no I don't agree actually. like if you believe in things like forgiveness and prison abolition etc then what we should want to happen in a situation like this, a situation where someone went through a lot of fucked up stuff as a teenager and then DID some fucked up stuff in their 20s what should happen is they apologize to their victims, take some time to reflect and learn, step away from fame, and then go on to live a long happy life with their families. that should be the goal. not this. this is just horrible all around. his death does not erase or heal anything that his victims went through and if anything is probably just going to amplify and exacerbate their trauma. I feel horrible for everyone involved and I don't think it's right to be celebrating anything.

Liam was a boy, and then a man, who suffered so much trauma and pain. He was bullied as a child and then lived a nightmare that I think none of us can really imagine of having that triggering experience replicated on a literally global public scale. He became a man who inflicted trauma on others. He was an addict who was unable to find a way out of that disease, and now never will, but who was open and vulnerable about his struggles. He was an incredibly talented musician and artist and an absolutely integral part of one of the most important bands of a generation; his voice and songwriting and skill in the studio shaped every aspect of what One Direction became at their best. He loved that band and being a part of that experience with his whole being and would never have stopped celebrating what they meant to us and to the world. He had problems and did bad things; that doesn't mean he was a bad person who didn't deserve to be loved and helped to heal- everyone deserves that- and the fact that that's not something that can ever happen now is devastating. I was very distressed by many of his actions; and I cared deeply about this man I didn't know and wished for better for him than this outcome.

I'm so deeply, deeply SAD tonight. I'm sad for Liam, who will never now have the chance to look back on this hard time and reflect on how far he's come, and for Liam's family, for his parents and his sisters who loved and supported him so much, and for everyone in the 1D band family and circles. And I'm sad for us. It feels like nothing will ever be quite the same, and that's hard and sad and shocking. It's a special kind of doubled grief, to mourn the loss of the person, and also of what he meant to us in this strange world of parasocial fanning, for the real him and also for the version of him that we made up and attached so much meaning to and for the escape that brought us. For him, and also for the easy uncomplicated joy of listening to those beautiful songs from happier times, which might never feel the same again. For the other boys, who we love so much and wish we could shield from suffering and loss and pain. For our fellow fans, who we also worry about the impact of this on. Everything about this is terrible, and I am sending so much love out to all of you. We are not alone, and it's okay to feel complicated emotions and it's okay to mourn and it's okay to care about how it effects you and your life, whatever you're feeling- it's okay. We are here with you. We are 1D family.

Rest in Peace, Payno. 😥

I hope your troubled mind finally has the peace it has deserved for so long.
